It's a great idea, ana I looked into it my self for my T48, but -
a) ridiculusly expensive, both for its function, and for its construction
b) too heavy, and at the wrong area of the boat (aft of the stern)
c) would need to change my passerelle to a longer one to be able to get out.
However, both TNT and opacmare are using the mechanics of a hydraulic passerelle for their lifts, which means that one can be more cheaply constructed, and with much less weight (if the right materials are used).

Good points.
In my case, B is not a major problem (displacement boat), and the passerelle would still fit.
But A is definitely an issue!
Didn't know of this TNT, could you post any reference?

<span style="color:blue"> </span> They are the original article.
Huge selection.
I was proposed the "Donzi lift" for my T48, and was quoted:
Donzi Lift
comes with a 50 square foot swim platform, full cradle assembly package, hardwire remote control. $21,152.00
Optional Wireless remote control $ 950.00
Shipping crate for lift and platform $ 500.00
F.O.B. Ft. Lauderdale, FL
Installation by TNT Crew $ 3,000.00 plus expensives
Kind of expensive, dont you think?

I'd rather call that ridiculously expensive!
Surely sea ray pays a fraction of that.
I will check with Sanguineti and Opacmare, hopefully they are more willing to sell!?!....

If it's just for the tender you need it, it could be worthwhile checking the Freedom Lift at www.gofreedomlift.com

Interesting. Any idea of its cost, by chance?
